Meltdown

Well, we had been saying that Jillian was a good traveller, but a quick shopping trip today changed that thinking. Maybe she was just having a bad day, but as soon as we got her into the carseat, the crying began. Starting the car helped, but going across Longview with all of the stop lights did not. Pretty soon, the crying turned to wailing, and then snorting, and then hyperventilating, and then growling (as Heather described it), etc ... We eventually pulled over for an emergency feeding just to regain some composure. It helped some, but the trip back was more of the same. We've found that when it gets bad, it takes a while for it to get good again.
